The Star-Man's Womb

[FweepFwopFwoop]

"Uhh... Actually... I fixed it a little while ago. It's ready whenever..."

[Eskal]

"Oh. I see. I guess it makes sense to do a little sight seeing before you go back home."

[FweepFwopFwoop]

"Well, a little more sight seeing anyway. It was relatively recent."

[Eskal]

Jeremy nodded.

[FweepFwopFwoop]

"I just put off using it since I was having so much fun. But I probably shouldn't hold off too much longer. My family's worried sick, I just know it."

[Eskal]

"Yeah... They probably are," Jeremy said.

[FweepFwopFwoop]

"Well, then let's get home before my conscience gets the better of me." Trian said, somewhat distant.

[Eskal]

"We should be back within a few days."

[FweepFwopFwoop]

"Let's hope so." Trian mumbled to himself. A few days later, they pulled into Jeremy's driveway. Trian followed him inside.

Jeremy started getting the laundry into baskets to be washed as Kiba ran around the yard.

[FweepFwopFwoop]

Trian spent some time using his cooking skills to prepare a nice dinner for the two of them. Once done, he served up a fancy chicken dish.

[Eskal]

"Ah, a home cooked meal after so long," Jeremy said.

[FweepFwopFwoop]

"I guess one could say any meal is home-cooked. The home just isn't yours. I dunno. It's good to be back someplace where I can do the cooking, I know that." Trian gave him a taste of the food. "Is it good? What do you two think?"

[Eskal]

"It's fantastic," Jeremy said. Kiba licked his lips in response.

[FweepFwopFwoop]

I'm glad you like it." Trian smiled. He ate silently for a few moments. "So, I couldn't put it off any longer. I put out my distress signal."

[Eskal]

"Oh...I see."

[FweepFwopFwoop]

"Yeah, I... I got a response today. To prep for extraction. They'll be here to pick me up in two nights."

[Eskal]

"That's...That's really soon."

[FweepFwopFwoop]

"Yeah, I know. But, that's all we have left."

[Eskal]

"We should make it count then, huh?"
